Strange the Legislature would allow
all this trouble and expense over a
bill that would not forbid the State
granting a license after it passed.

NEW YORK, July 27-The situation is
startling. II allowed to continue every |
interest will feel it. Every foot of land |
will become Of less value, every bushel of |
whest, every bushel of corn, every pound |
of cotton will decline in value. On the
other hand, If the administration goes to !
work under the powers given it by exist
ing laws, and earnestly tries to frame |
new laws for the consideration Of the IN !
coming Congress, we shall see such an |
era of prosperity as was never before |
witnessed in this iand.
The SITUATION.
The fact is, that with the exception OF
some 500. GOA, 900 deposited by the Treas
ury with national banks, there is now
clicked up" out of use and drawing no
interest, in the United States Treasury,
the vast sum OF nearly $40, 100000.
One hundred millions OF this vast sum
the Treasury is obliged to keep under the
laws IS reserve against United States
notes.
Upwards Of another hundred millions
of this vas: sum is retained to redeem
the notes of national banks failed or re-
firing circulation.
There is no lew requiring the Treasury
to keep this sum locked up. /. is only
required to redeem the notes as pre-
sented.
It will be years before these national
bank notes will all come in, and it ID more
than likely that to > per cent. will never
be presented.
Should this money lie idle all these
gears? II II must then there is some de-
feet in the national banking law which
ought to be corrected.
Why Congress should have put ii in the
power Of the national banks to use the
Treasury in this way is serious que5
ton.
OF the balance of this vast sum there
is retained to meet past due bonds, dis
bursting otliCeTs' drafts, Po5totice Depart
ment accounts and divers appropriations,
nearlY $40, 100000, just SIS If the Treasury
was not receiving from the people every
month upwards Of 525, 900, 900 to meet all
these things.
For ell TIE above the Treasury Depart
ment may set up g valid excuse; but, if
SO, the next Congress should see that
something is done to utilize as large g
part OF this 8270,000,O00 a. is consistent
and safe.

the ruling or wishes Of the Treasury De

Tally Scott, and who claims to have been
working in the coal mines in the Nation
for some time, got on the south bound
Mineols passenger train at DenisOn yes
terday, and, filing himself with liquor,
practically conducted the trsin to suit
himself IS far as Greenville by terroriziDg
passengers and train officers. The con-
ductor had got him out of the passenger
coach into the mail and express car.
Here he acted the wild beast in human
form. The man employed to sweep out
the coaches seeking an entrance
was denied it with threats and
curses. Marshal Anderson Of this
city, who was near by, was
now called into reQuiSition and only with
the aid Of two stout men succeeded in
forcing the end door of the Car open,
Scott pushing from within meanwhile.
Az entrance gained, the Marshal under
took to arrest the hurley negro of giant
strength, when the latter kept of the
officer with ex-Marshal Young and Joe
